Thank you, CBS Detroit for covering the #RightToSit! Sitting at work (if it doesn’t interfere with essential job duties) isn’t a protected right, but many have ailments that don’t fit the legal definition of disability. This would open up more jobs to more people! #RightToSitA2

I’m so proud of my sister, Natasha Bagdasarian 🦠💉, for sharing her story ❤️ “Decisions about when & how to have a child should be left to a family, their doctor and the people they love and trust. ... It's not political at all," she said. "It's health care.” shorturl.at/DJAlJ

Extraordinary for JD Vance to invoke a friend who needed an abortion, while appearing on behalf of the president who ended American women’s right to choose.

The #RightToSit ordinance was officially passed on Monday evening (10/21)! Thank you to all the workers & advocates who told their stories at the past few meetings - it was truly powerful. This makes A2 a better place to live & work for all! #RightToSitA2 wxyz.com/news/right-to-…

Great work City of Ann Arbor! In September I introduced #RightToSit legislation. My bill would protect worker health and safety by requiring reasonable seating from their employer for jobs that can be completed while seated. This is about human dignity and common sense.

Honored that #a2council’s passage of the Right to Sit ordinance is paving the way for workers’ rights across Michigan. Grateful to Reps Dylan Wegela, Rep. Carrie Rheingans, & others for introducing HB 5983 at the state level. I urge the Michigan Legislature to pass it! #MiRightToSit

Ann Arbor recently enacted a similar law: "Ann Arbor, Michigan, approved a law that will allow workers to sit rather than standing while on the job. The law will apply to a broad swath of positions across industries including hospitality and retail..." fastcompany.com/91216786/what-…

Proud to have introduced HB 5983. “Right to Sit” is about human dignity, compassion and common sense. Did you know most states including Michigan used to have “Right to Sit” laws?

In 2022, one million Michigan voters skipped the nonpartisan section of the November ballot. Moving Ann Arbor elections to the nonpartisan section might lead to the same voter disinterest in our local races #votenopropC #a2council

We’re working on a site with CityWise where renters can search by price, vouchers, family and income size, accessibility features, and other criteria that will improve access to rental housing in A2 for all. #A2Council #A2 #AffordableHousing #CityWise mlive.com/news/ann-arbor…
